Will there be a home run record in the new Yankee Stadium with this years Yankee team?  The current record is held at the Coors Field in Colorado totoling 303 Home runs.  What causes these wind currents, is it the height of the stadiums or maybe the gaps in the structure at the tops of the stadium.  What about the buildings around the stadium, can these buildings cause unusual wind currents on the field?  Or, can it be the players are hitting the ball further, I think we can rule this factor out, because, if the players were hitting longer balls the other stadiums would show more home runs in their parks. 

     Lets get back to Yankee Stadium and explore their problems.   The Yankees observed the wind patterns before opening the stadium, working with RWDI, an engineering firm in Guelph, Ontario, that studies wind currents in sports stadiums. RWDI declined to comment, but Yankees CEO Lonn Trost says the team is doing more studies.  How about the gap in right and left field, can these two gaps cause unusual wind currents down on the field?  Could the old Yankees Stadium be causing these wind currents in the new ball park?  Will the wind currents change when the old stadium is torn down?  I think there are few things that the Yankees can do in the new park that can help fix this problem, but I will keep them to myself for now.
